Understanding Thuan Hung Rice Paper Village: A Legacy of Resilience

The story of Thuan Hung is a multi-generational saga of “passion and preservation.” For over 200 years, the families here have maintained the art of making rice paper, a staple of Vietnamese cuisine. Originally serving local needs, the village has evolved into a major commercial hub without losing its soul. This legacy represents the “vibrant living heritage” of Can Tho, where the secret to a perfect sheet—balancing thickness, elasticity, and flavor—is passed down from grandmothers to granddaughters, ensuring the village’s “rhythm of the craft” never fades.

What Makes Thuan Hung Rice Paper Village Special?

Thuan Hung Rice Paper Village is the soul of Can Tho’s culinary heritage. It is not just a factory; it is an open-air museum where the “spirit of the land” is transformed into edible art.

Today, it stands as a symbol of agricultural ingenuity. Visitors can observe four distinct types of rice paper: Sweet (with coconut and ginger), Salty (for spring rolls), Nem (soft for fresh rolls), and Coconut (thick for grilling). Observing how the villagers time their production with the sun—relying on the “rhythm of the river” and weather—highlights the deep connection between the local community and the natural environment.

“With Mekong Smile experts, you will discover that the most critical ingredient isn’t just the rice, but the Mekong Sun. We will guide you to households that still use the 100% natural drying method. Our experts explain the ‘Half-Dry’ technique. Learning to read the clouds through the eyes of a Thuan Hung artisan is a transformative experience that reveals the true technical depth of this ‘simple’ craft.” – By Mr. Jimmy, Business Development of Mekong Smile

    Frequently Asked Questions about Thuan Hung Rice Paper Village

    Why should I visit Thuan Hung Rice Paper Village with Mekong Smile?

    Booking with Mekong Smile opens doors to private family workshops that don’t usually accept tourists. Our guides help you understand the technical grades of rice used and ensure you experience the village’s “vibrant living heritage” respectfully.

    Can I buy rice paper at Thuan Hung Rice Paper Village to take home?

    Yes! The paper is lightweight and easy to pack. Pro-tip: The sweet ginger variety is a favorite among international travelers as a unique Mekong snack.

    Is the Thuan Hung Rice Paper Village active in the rainy season?

    Yes, but the drying process is more challenging. Mekong Smile guides know which houses have indoor drying systems or thermal ovens to ensure you see the process regardless of the weather.

    Is Thuan Hung Rice Paper Village suitable for children?

    Absolutely. Kids love watching the “magic” of the batter turning into paper and trying to handle the bamboo racks.

    What is the difference between Thuan Hung Rice Paper Village and other villages?

    Thuan Hung is unique for its 200-year history and the fact that it still produces four distinct specialized varieties manually, whereas many other regions have fully mechanized.
